<p>The Inlong plugin connects Telegraf to Apache InLong, enabling seamless transmission of collected metrics to an InLong instance.</p>
Integration details
OPC UA
<p>The OPC UA Plugin retrieves data from devices that communicate using the OPC UA protocol, allowing you to collect and monitor data from your OPC UA servers.</p>
Apache Inlong
<p>This Inlong plugin is designed to publish metrics to an Apache InLong instance, which facilitates the management of data streams in a scalable manner. Apache InLong provides a robust framework for efficient data transmission between various components in a distributed environment. By leveraging this plugin, users can effectively route and transmit metrics collected by Telegraf to their InLong data-proxy infrastructure. As a key component in a data pipeline, the Inlong Output Plugin helps ensure that data is consistently formatted, streamed correctly, and managed in compliance with the standards set by Apache InLong, making it an essential tool for organizations looking to enhance their data analytics and reporting capabilities.</p>

OPC UA
Apache Inlong
Input and output integration examples
OPC UA
<ol> <li> <p><strong>Basic Configuration</strong>: Set up the plugin with your OPC UA server endpoint and desired metrics. This allows Telegraf to start gathering metrics from the configured nodes.</p> </li> <li> <p><strong>Node ID Setup</strong>: Use the configuration to specify specific nodes, such as temperature sensors, to monitor their values in real-time. For example, configure node <code>ns=3;s=Temperature</code> to gather temperature data directly.</p> </li> <li> <p><strong>Group Configuration</strong>: Simplify monitoring multiple nodes by grouping them under a single configuration—this sets defaults for all nodes in that group, thereby reducing redundancy in setup.</p> </li> </ol>
Apache Inlong
<ol> <li> <p><strong>Real-time Metrics Monitoring</strong>: Integrating the Inlong plugin with a real-time monitoring dashboard allows teams to visualize system performance continuously. As metrics flow from Telegraf to InLong, organizations can create dynamic panels in their monitoring tools, providing instant insights into system health, resource utilization, and performance bottlenecks. This setup encourages proactive management and swift identification of potential issues before they escalate into critical failures.</p> </li> <li> <p><strong>Centralized Data Processing</strong>: Use the Inlong plugin to send Telegraf metrics to a centralized data processing pipeline that processes large volumes of data for analysis. By directing all collected metrics through Apache InLong, businesses can streamline their data workflows and ensure consistency in data formatting and processing. This centralized approach facilitates easier data integration with business intelligence tools and enhances decision-making through consolidated data insights.</p> </li> <li> <p><strong>Integration with Machine Learning Models</strong>: By feeding metrics collected through the Inlong Output Plugin into machine learning models, teams can enhance predictive analytics capabilities. For instance, metrics can be analyzed to predict system failures or performance trends. This application allows organizations to leverage historical data and infer future performance, helping them optimize resource allocation and minimize downtime using automated alerts based on model predictions.</p> </li> </ol>
